A:Yes. The Palermo Hippodrome is a must-visit attraction for horse-racing and sports fans. It's also worth a visit to see its grand belle epoque architecture, but it’s not a popular tourist attraction. If you come on a race day, you'll experience a slice of local life, too.

A:Races at the Palermo Hippodrome are held 10 times a month (nine in February), generally between Thursday and Monday. Races are held consistently on Mondays, so that's the best day to go to see a race in addition to admiring the architecture and visiting one of the restaurants.
Q:What is the best time of year to visit the Palermo Hippodrome?
